Item: Cat 5 1.8m speaker cable Location: Epping 2121 Price: $20 + postage Item Condition: Very good Reason for selling: No longer required Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal, COD Only Extra Info:
Cat5 speaker cable 1.8m in length consisting of 4 seperate cable runs. This is a easy way to try out Cat5 speakers cable without effort of plaiting, stripping and soldering ends.
I haven't listened to a lot of cables but compared to my current Canare 4S11, the Cat5 cable has very good top end, transparent with excellent localisation of instruments with a slight recessing of bass.
These cables are about 3 years old and were purchased off SNA. Pictures:

Item: Cambridge Audio 540A int amp Location: Epping 2121 Price: $50 Item Condition: Good, left channel issue on start up Reason for selling: Clearing surplus equipment Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal, COD Only Extra Info:
Good budget integrated with 50watts which has a light, reasonably neutral sound with a slight additional body to lower midrange (ie slight chestiness to male vocals Michael Buble). Amp has no remote and it has an issue at start up where left hand channel does not come through at lower volumes, movement of volume dial seems to ‘wake up’ that left channel with issue resolving on warm up. I have not sought a quote to repair the amp. Price reflects these issues.
I am the original owner of the amp which was purchased in Malaysia which has the same 230V as Australia. The amp is 11-12 years old but has not been used for over 7-8 years. I ran the amp this weekend and apart from the noted issue it functioned well.
Given the price my preference is for a local sale. I do not have packaging but will consider postage if no local takers. Happy to demo for interested purchasers.

Item: Rega Apollo CD player Location: Epping 2121 Price: $50 Item Condition: Good Reason for selling: Clearing surplus equipment Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal, COD Only Extra Info:
Well regarded Rega CD player with top loading mechanism designed to minimise noise from extra moving parts of the traditional tray mechanism. This CD player’s strengths are its natural reproduction of vocals, the correct timbre/body of string instruments (ie violin, piano, guitar) and reasonably extended bass.
I purchased this via SNA so am possibly the third/fourth owner. Three years ago I had the laser mechanism replaced by a reputable repairer based in the South of Sydney. One of the ball bearings on the CD drive mechanism has been broken which I have provided pictures to show. Overall the rest of the player is in good condition, reads/plays all my original CDs and comes with a functioning remote.
